Mike, thanks for trying to help. Neither gdmsetup nor /etc/opt/gnome/gdm/gdm.conf mention anything about "passwordless" login, [...]
User=gdm Group=shadow
Any idea what this is?
That is the user and group that gdm is run as. I would advise against changing that. I remember that on an older version of SuSE (9.1 IIRC) the group was changed during one of the patch updates. Took me a while to figure out why gdm do not want to start. I found the correct group to use in some other gnome config file IIRC, but I cannot remember which file it was. -- Andre Truter | Software Engineer | Registered Linux user #185282 ICQ #40935899 | AIM: trusoftzaf | http://www.trusoft.co.za ~ A dinosaur is a salamander designed to Mil Spec ~
